Synopsis

Spoiler shield

In 1998, Beavis and Butt-Head are sentenced to Space Camp by a “creative” judge. Their obsession with a docking simulator (huh huh) leads to a trip on the Space Shuttle, with predictably disastrous results. After going through a black hole, they re-emerge in our time, where they look for love, misuse iPhones, and are hunted by the Deep State. Spoiler: They don’t score.

Beavis and Butt-Head haven't changed and that is a good thing. Watching this made me feel like my teenage self ... I laughed at Cornholio, I laughed at the low brow humor that was all too familiar from someone who watched Beavis and Butt-Head back in the day. I am glad they came back to do the Universe. They were missed.
